| Severed finger makes paramedic faint |
|
2007-06-05, 07:57:24 When I was at the post office today, a clerk was telling her co-worker about how her brother was working on his riding lawn mower and got his hand caught in some part of the mechanism. The brother was home alone, and so he had to back the machine off, get his hand out. One of his fingers had been torn completely off. Then he called 911. When the paramedic arrived, he saw the brother's hand—and passed out. So then the brother had to call 911 again, to get another ambulance to come out, both to help him and help the downed paramedic. The story seems a bit unlikely—aren't there at least two people in an ambulance, like a driver and another person? Anyway, I would be pissed if my paramedic passed out at the sight of carnage. |
